Computation of Present Value using PV Function in Excel:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

Here,

PV = Present Value = ?

Rate = 6%/12 = 0.5% compounded monthly

Nper = (30-7) years*12 months = 23 years*12 months = 276 months

PMT = 0

FV = $975,000

Substituting the values in formula:

=-pv(0.5%,276,0,975000)

PV or Present Value = $246,133.98
